This week on Little Wars TV we refight the largest battle of the Revolution--Brandywine--across four custom tabletops with thousands of miniatures. Before the wargame, we'll debate George Washington's generalship at this pivotal moment in the war. Just how badly did Washington bungle the Battle of Brandywine? And then, six players square off in an epic wargame to refight the events of September 11, 1777. Can William Howe and the British crush the American rebels or will the old fox Washington live to fight another day?
And in an exciting, interactive twist, we're going to allow YOU to answer that question. For this wargame, we played the scenario not once, but twice! At a critical moment in the battle, we'll hit "pause" and ask you to make a command decision as George Washington. It's a "choose your own adventure" style ending like you've never seen before.
